About this event

Battlin’Bots Workshop - members only - RSVP required. 
This is not a public event. Members may bring up to 3 guests, prepaid at $15 per guest.  All participants must be in 4th grade and up. Guests can register themselves and build a bot with all materials provided in the $15 fee.


Battlin’Bots is a real engineering activity, building "problem solving" and critical thinking skills. It is popular with students in grades 4-8 but suitable for high school level as well.

We provide the basic materials for your first bot as part of your NEST membership - two drive motors, platform, hookup wires, and basic hardware. Later you may add up to two additional motors. Additional materials may be purchased from us or you can bring items from home.

We provide you with one plastic shoe-box size container to keep your bot here so you can work on it any time you come in.  If you abandon your bot for more than 6 months, or cancel your membership, your bot may be disassembled to recycle parts and make room for other students' containers.

Check out some Battlin'Bots highlights on our NESciTech YouTube Channel.
